Colorado 60, Air Force 50

Jeff Bzdelik weathered the taunts and jeers, Richard Roby scored a season-high 21 points and Colorado escaped with a 60-50 victory over Air Force on Thursday night in the former coach's return to Clune Arena.

The Falcons (5-3) never led in the game in part to their struggles at the free throw line, where they finished 7-for-17.

Levi Knutson's two 3-pointers late in the game sealed the Buffaloes' third straight win.

Colorado went into the locker room with what the team thought was a 26-19 lead, but Hall's shot at the buzzer was eventually waved off after officials took a second look on the video monitor.

Bzdelik was 50-16 in his two-year stint at Air Force. He guided the team to the NCAA tournament in 2006 and a spot in the semifinals of the postseason NIT last season. He had a 30-1 record at Clune Arena.
